I spent the day haulin truck tires around for my dad's trucking company today and got a chance to price some tires. A couple different ones I looked at were Hancook RT03 M/Ts and Safari TSRs. In a 285 I can get the Hancooks for 200 each installed and the TSRs for 250. The tax isn't important because dad will claim it and just pay it back to me. What are your opinions on these tires? Any good? worth the price? I'm not necessarily gonna buy one or the other, just curious if they are a decent tire. I'm not a hardcore offroader but do like to get er dirty once in a while

thanks in advance!

oh, and I ran a couple tanks of supreme through er today, helped a LOT with the pinging, and I had 8 big truck tires on er most of the day too. The ol girl likes the good stuff

 

What the hell are Safari tires? Never heard of them. Since you say you are not a hardcore offroader, why M/T tires? Just get some A/Ts. But if it were up to me, I'd get the Hankooks. Chris (Laramie1997) has Hankook tires and likes them.

 

sorry, the safari's are made by Kelly

purpl, I want the mt's partly for the look, but I do like to go play once in a while with the boys and get dirty. maybe if I had some decent tires I would be offroad more. In the spring/summer/fall the truck has mud on it more than it doesn't, if I see somethin I usually gotta hit it. My girls love to see the mud flyin haha

 

I had good experience with the hankook's ..really good tire!!

 

anyone have an opinion on these.

im getting ready to order these, $597.30 to the door

 

those look pretty much identical to my mud kings tread pattern

edit: I like the look of those bighorns, too bad they dont ship to canada shipping would be killer anyways to here, always is on big stuff like that

 

I want mud kings, but they dont make em any more

 

they don't make mud kings anymore? wth? Buddy I got these from bought the from summit just a year or so ago

anyways, I guess they are a bit different, I googled a pic:

 

if they still make mud kings they are not available in east tennessee lol, ive looked everywhere and no luck, I have the sport kings on my truck now which is the A/T version and got really good service (over 50K) out of them but I want something more agressive thats why I opted for the M/T's instead of A/T's this round.
